Senator representing Delta Central Senatorial district of Delta State, Senator Ede Dafinone has commissioned the Students’ Union Government (SUG) Relaxation Centre at the Federal University of Petroleum Resources, Effurun (FUPRE).

Speaking during the commissioning ceremony, Senator Dafinone described the project as a strong demonstration of creativity, dedication, commitment, and purposeful leadership by the student body to enhancing campus life and student welfare.

The Delta Central senator recalled that the SUG leadership had paid him a courtesy visit two months earlier to express their appreciation for his contributions to the institution, including the ongoing construction of an ultra-modern 50-bedroom hostel at FUPRE and was invited to commission the students’ projects.

“During that visit, I was invited to commission their student-led projects on campus, and I was pleased to honour that invitation today,” he said.

He reiterated his support for youth-focused initiatives, adding that investments in student welfare and leadership development were critical to institutional growth. Sen, Dafinone emphasized that the Relaxation Centre and the hostel project reflected a shared commitment to “empowering young leaders, improving student welfare, and promoting institutional growth.”

He commended the SUG leadership and the wider student community for the successful delivery of the project, describing their effort as inspiring.

“I commend Comr. Edemaki Ota Etiosa, the SUG leadership, and all the students who contributed to the successful delivery of this project. Your dedication is inspiring,” he said.

He urged the SUG to “continue upholding high standards of leadership, service, and excellence.

The newly commissioned SUG Relaxation Centre is expected to boost students’ recreational experience on campus as well as complement the university’s ongoing infrastructural developments.
